When I opened my eyes, I saw a vast indigo sky. Is this a dream? Why am I in outer space?
I started looking around and I am surrounded by a lot of stars and a lot of yellow light orbs. They look like cute little fireflies but a little out of place since they are among stars.
Another question that came into my mind was, "Why is it still night time? I remember sleeping and that should be a few hours ago. It should be at least dawn already". I tried to look at my hands but I couldn't see them then I realized, I am also a yellow orb! So that was why when I was trying to speak a while ago, I found out that I couldn't! I wanted to scream this time "Where the heck is this place? What is happening to me?" but I don't have a mouth much less vocal chords right now. I tried moving around and realized "Oh! I can move little by little so I think I can try bumpin with the other orbs here." I tried it and was almost near one when everything went pitch black. I thought, "How can there be a shadow here?" I tried to turn around (I don't have a neck, much less a head right now. Ugh! But, I am turning around okay?) and there it is! A huge black hole gradually enlarging behind me while swallowing everything it touches. It started absorbing the light orbs like a vacuum cleaner! All I can say in my head was "If this is a nightmare which I am sure is, I need to wake up! I am just a tiny light orb now. Will I die for real if that absorbs me? Why do I have to be swallowed by that thing? Ahhhhhhh!" I screamed internally while being swallowed by the black hole just like every other light orb nearby that it touched. I felt like I was in a blender. No maybe water into the sewer drain or maybe a washing machine would be a good description. Maybe all of them at the same time and I am so dizzy right now! Make it stoppppp! Why does everything that happen always make me dizzy? I am quite sure I fainted after that.
I woke up after I don't know how long it has been but this time, with sunlight shining on my face. That dream was tiring. Who opened the curtains to let the sunshine in? I remember shutting those before I slept. I was wearing the clothes I wore when I slept while being sick and all (literally an oversized shirt, baggy pants, no bra, just panties, looking really haggard).
I opened my eyes and realized that I am not in my room and I was laying in a sea of flowers and not my bed. The first words that I said was, "This... Where?" as I looked frantically around. This place is totally different from the last one with the outer space theme. I immediately raised my hand and tried to speak just to be sure that I am no longer a light orb and thank the gods I am a human again.
The next thing I thought was, "What a nice outfit to be in when you are travelling from one place to another? *sighs*" I sat up and looked around. It seems no one is here. I stood up and walked around to see if there is a house or any structure that can have people inside them but there was none. It was an endless sea of flowers.
After several minutes of aimlessly walking around, I heard a voice in my head and it said "Welcome to my domain! First thing, this is not a dream. Sorry to be blunt but I don't think you have realized that you're dead? You are one of the chosen ones to be transfered to a new world so you can live a second life. Got any wishes?"
I was surprised when somebody spoke inside my head but it didn't match the shock I got about being dead. That was a really informal and insensitive way to say that I am dead and there's nothing I can do about it huh? I was silent for a while. I was thinking, "This is what I think it is right?! Is this my favorite novel theme?" I slowly looked down and buried my face into my hands. I sniffed a bit for good measure. This will need my acting skills so I can get maximum advantages for my second life *evil grin*.
The voice said "Are you angry? Does being dead suprise you that much? Are you going to cry on me? There's nothing much we could do now, isn't it? I will help you with a good start on your new life as much as I can okay?" What he didn't know is... I was smiling mischieviously and thinking "This is definitely one of the tropes I read before. I-SE-KA-I! (I screamed internally) Should I ask for powers, immortality, ethereal beauty, being a princess, or unending wealth? How many wishes do I have anyway? Is one the maximum? I think I should try to ask for more." I removed my hands from my face but still kept looking down and said "This is just too shocking. *sniff* I just died like that and now I had to move to another world? *sniff* How about my family and friends? *sniff* I am now speaking to someone I couldn't see and I'm scared. *boo hoo* Are you like a fairy or a god of this world or something?". I looked up with innocent and teary eyes. The voice answered "You don't have to cry. You can say I am the god of the world you will be brought to and I personally chose the people that can enter like a gatekeeper of some sort. I actually chose about 27 people this time. Just think about winning the lottery and you were chosen to get better privileges than the other 26".
